Fig. 1: A segment of pyramidal cell dendrite from stratum radiatum (CA1) with thin, stubby, and mushroom-shaped spines. Spine synapses colored in red, stem (or shaft) synapses colored in blue. The dendrite was made transparent in the lower image to enable visualization of all synapses. Photo by Josef Spacek.
Synaptic spines are „structural units” that undergo plastic changes in
response to synaptic stimulation

In situ hybrydyzacja z sonda RNA wyznakowana digoksygeniną
High-resolution fluorescent in situ hybridization procedure to comprehensively evaluate mRNA localization dynamics during early Drosophila embryogenesis.
Lecuyer et al. 2007
„Single molecule FISH” to metoda in situ hybrydyzacji pozwalająca na obrazowanie pojedynczej cząsteczki mRNA w komórce dzięki wykorzystaniu wielu fluorescencyjnie wyznakowanych sond zaprojektowanych do rozpoznawania sekwencji
w obrębie tej samej cząsteczki mRNA
Przy użyciu tej metody można np. jednocześnie wykrywać dwa różne mRNA w komórce lub mRNA postałe w wyniku fuzji 2 transkryptów (translokacji genomowych)
jak np. BCR-ABL

Fragile X syndrome
is the most common form of inherited mental retardation in males and is also a significant cause of mental retardation in females. It affects about 1 in 4,000 males and 1 in 8,000 females. Nearly all cases of fragile X syndrome are caused by an alteration (mutation) in the FMR1 gene where a DNA segment, known as the CGG triplet repeat, is expanded.Badanie oddziaływania białko-RNA
One of the characteristic features of FXS neurons is the abnormal dendritic spine morphology (Rudelli 1985).
Immature, long and thin spines are also observed in FMR1 KO mice, a model of FXS.
Malformations of the dendritic spines may lead to cognitive disorders
